which we can see as modern-day parables.

To help us visualize these word-pictures, I've illustrated a number of them.

We are Like Eggs God is Like the Universe
We are Like Statues God is Like a Painter
We are Like Rabbits God is Like a Diver
We are Like Tin Soldiers God is like a Cube
We are Like Unfinished Paintings
We are Like Telescopes Life Eternal is Like a Book
We are Like a Living House Like Sweet Whisperings
We are Like Dusty Mirrors Like Patches of Sunlight
We are Like Engines
We are Like Broken-Down Cars Humanity is Like One Being
Divorce is Like Amputation
Like a Horse with Wings Pain is Like a Megaphone
Like Astronomers with Binoculars Like Healing a Body
Like Being Blocked by a Door
Nature is Like a Picture Like a Compass
Souls are Like Puzzle Pieces
